Images Need A Complete URL To Appear

Hi All,

I experienced an issue where I tried to replace some images on my website. When I upload an image and select it to appear as, for example, a row background, the image URL should be complete (it means with the domain name, folder, sub-folder etc.), and relative path wich is inserted by Joomla itself does not work.

Could someone please assist me to fix the issue?

Thanks!

2nd possible reason: your current site is now in temporray subfolder "/23/" - and Joomla thinks that root path is domain without "/23" as quick-fix solution you can update/edit your configuration.php file and put domain path with "/23" to it.

HERE: public $live_site = '';

Thanks Paul! This option resolved the issue. It means I should do the same for all sites I installed in subfolders.

Cheer!

Hi Alex,

it may be caused by that you don't use Joomla SEF/SEO, and all subpages has long URL alias, for example, /index.php/pages/about-us

why don't you use Joomla core features like: renamed .htaccess file and this settings in Global Configuration info_2050_2023.jpg

As summary thougts, probably if you had configured the two slightly differently from the beginning and used a subdomain rather than a subfolder to install Joomla, everything would have been OK. But we all learn from mistakes, either our own or others'.
